Employing magic words and rituals alongside early medicines, these horse doctors and hound charmers faced down the most incurable of diseases with a combination of faith, tradition and science. When creatures like these hapless horses fell ill, medieval peasants and nobles alike relied on the occult powers of animal healers, forerunners to today’s veterinarians. It’s the dreaded disease called farcy-and you’ll need more than medicine to make your animals well again.
Not long after, the horse stabled next to it came down with the same sickness. But then weeping pustules appeared all over its body, and fluids poured forth from every orifice.
The year is 1266, and your horse is acting strange.
